Illidan Spotlight and Novel Preorder for 45% Off - Mon, 11 Apr 2016 07:57:27 -0500For veteran players and readers of Warcraft, Illidan has played many a part in Universe of Warcraft. With this new book coming out, properly named "Illidan" we will learn a bit much more about this legendary character... but let us be reminded what we already know about him in the game.

This is a very short summary of a quick introduction as to what we know about Illidan. I did leave out somethings because it was hard enough to keep this short.

Today's Legion mount preview is the Ghostly Moose (not to be confused with Spirit of Eche'ro). Check out our Legion Mount Models Playlist for more previews of mounts like Reins of the Llothien Prowler and Brinedeep Bottom-Feeder.

How the Legion Class Order Hall Campaign Works - Sat, 09 Apr 2016 09:22:22 -0500Legion introduces Class Order Halls, a special place specifically for your class where you are able to see other members of the same class and work your way to leveling up your artifact weapon. Along with these, Class Order Halls also have their own separate campaign, somewhat similar to garrisons in Warlords of Draenor, however these encourage you to go out into the world and explore even more so than you did before.

Each class now has six Artifact Weapon styles with four tints each (Guardian Druid and Elemental Shaman still not implemented). Notable additions include Thunderfury Reborn for Outlaw Rogues and the Titan's Reach bow for Beast Mastery Hunters.

4/6 Alpha Build Design Notes and Mythic+ (Challenge Mode) Dungeon Testing - Wed, 06 Apr 2016 19:04:10 -0500A new alpha build is on its way! No new classes or zones are referenced in these design notes, but hybrids are now getting mana back for utility spells and abilities. Raid testing is also likely Friday and Monday. Edit: we've been adding posts about specific classes like Unholy Death Knights and Windwalker Monks, as well as alpha build delays.

This Legion build added Illusions players can collect to give their weapons special glows. While there are some fan-favorite enchants, there are also some brand new enchants we haven't seen before: Illusion: Nightmare, Illusion:

On Wowhead Weekly #75, we discuss the latest Alpha build (new models, holiday items, zone updates, unicorn mount), the new children's book series World of Warcraft: Traveler, movie marketing, and new merchandise!

Blizzard April Fools 2016 Round Up - Sat, 02 Apr 2016 00:24:10 -0500As usual in Blizzard fashion, we awoke to a bunch of brand new news that made us smile and get our hopes up only to realize...it's the first of April! Urg! We had quite a few fun little things shown to us across many of the Blizzard platforms.

Unfortunately, this means that Wowhead's own post from April 1st is also untrue. No Pepe Artifact, burning Garrison, Old Gods sponsoring the Darkmoon Faire, or Overwatch event in WoW.

Pepe is joining us in Legion as an Artifact Weapon whose traits unlock tons of new costumes! Players hyped about the Old Gods and the latest Hearthstone expansion will be intrigued to find the link between the Old Gods and Darkmoon Faire strengthened in this build as well. Many players will also rejoice to learn that the Garrison is set on fire.
